I had an idea to have an LED bulb that is basically just a giant curved COB led. Basically it would be shaped like an incandescent bulb, and it would be made of curved circuit boards (or close to it), two halves that press together, and the circuit boards would have chip-on-board LEDs on them. So with this design the thing would be completely hollow like an incandescent, so the electronics would have plenty of space inside. So after the electronics are placed inside, the other half would be pressed on and sealed. Then the whole thing would be coated in phosphor-infused gel (like on a COB), and finally an edison screw base would be attached to the bottom.
So the bulb would be just a giant curved COB led shaped like a bulb, and there would be plenty of space inside for electronics so there would be a lot of freedom to designing the electronics, and it would be efficient and won't flicker.
If there would be enough demand, they could be mass-produced like CFLs and be dirt cheap.
What do you think of this idea?
